so i ignore the "canon" ending bc i can, just for future context. anyways there are no current saints on the dsmp in my mind. however upon death, philza will become a saint- not only did he give up his spare lives to god for all eternity, but he also survived the act for so long. philza lived, and lived, and lived, and lived. he was not always right. he was not always kind. but he was always devout, refusing to claw back the lives he could have had, no matter the blood in his mouth or the torn feathers on his back or the gore on his hands, on his face, in his lungs. there is no need to wait 5 years once philza dies for good- he is not coming back. he does not claim the lives that he gave up. philza will become a saint. as for the pope? two options. if we're talking a pope of solely the dsmp, it's tommy. most ardent believer in prime, upholder of the church. prime is the christianity equivalent here- youtube streams are a pagan religion, and many claim that their followers are bloodthirsty and cruel, searching for sacrifices for their god. technoblade may have contributed to this stereotype without meaning to. but the second option is that tommyinnit is merely a priest, and the true pope is someone who has never visited the dsmp, someone who lives beyond it. the ceo of twitch, the one who delivers prime's blessings, the one who states the rules for all followers. the one who gains the most from the constant growth of the religion. also yes technically church prime is what declares sainthood, but they're basically the last ones to state it- sainthood is pretty much decided by public consensus. philza's sainthood was technically decided years ago, when knowledge spread of his devotion. the moment he dies, he is a saint in the eyes of the people. prayers lift into the air the instant his death is known. wishes for life, for survival through hardship, for courage and determination and strength. the people do not need miracles directly from his hand- from then on, the luck of rng that leads to impossible survival will be attributed to Saint Philza.
guys if they have Christmas in the Dream SMP, did they have to nail Jesus on the cross three times, once for every canon life?
#what does martyrdom mean in a world with multiple lives?#almost everything. because you are not choosing to die- you are choosing to limit yourself.#to sacrifice your final life means almost nothing. you are choosing to die. how does that help?#but choosing to give up a life yet to live. a portion of your future. and living the rest of the remainder in dedication#in devotion#in prayer#death is nothing. suicide is not martyrdom in this world.#but limitations? giving yourself a challenge to work through?#you are proving your faith with skill and perseverance.#if you are the knife#the lamb's life is not yours to give.#if you are the lamb#the sacrifice is not your own.#if you choose to be the lamb#the knife#the fire and the altar#who can say the blood is not your own?

What's ur opinions of baal and aym? Are they gonna be in ur fic?
using this as an opportunity to post these baal and aym doodles i never posted:
I like Aym and Baal! I'm intrigued by them and I hope we get to see more of them the further along the game updates....like I need more cat family reunion stuff to happen. Like, I wonder how they handle Narinder no longer being their master! As for their appearance in my fic, yes! They'll appear :)
#cult of the lamb#cult of the lamb fanart#cotl lamb#cotl aym#cotl baal#my art#now i know Narinder gave these two brain damage. but like in a funny way.#also the Lamb would absolutely threaten them with their mother.......like oh you choose to disrespect me......woe.....mother cat be upon yo#speaking of i need to draw forneus. she's just a cutie pie#aym and baal’s proportions make no sense to me. So ignore how I draw them.#love their weird under garments that look like dripping blood. Very intriguing

Okay we've seen the lamb bunny suit trend and it's excellent, but I think we need to also bring back the "Narinder wearing lamb's bell collar" trend. It's been long enough (two years) that there's a whole lotta new people here who would have a ball with it

— And do you or do you not have difficulty remembering such simple instructions? — Only during thunderstorms, sir.
THE SOUND OF MUSIC (1965) / DARK SHADOWS (1966)

Is there a Hazbin Hotel x Cult of the Lamb reader story?!
If not. YOU ARE WELCOME FOR THE IDEA!!!!!!!
Reader is like the lamb with the hat. And like that hat is kinda like Alastors microphone.
Sentient and stuff.
Reader looks all innocent, but deep down their soul is twisted. And that's only because they were the soul survivor of their family's massacre by another cult. So they made the deal with Narinder and so forth. Then they get killed and don't come back. Now they are in hiding from the other demons.
They are more powerful than Alastor. Besties with Rosie. Also they don't really like Tech so they have a flip phone.
Also this could be a Lucifer x Reader or maybe a whole platonic thing.
#hazbin hotel#cult of the lamb#hazbin hotel x reader#platonic?#romantic?#you choose.#story idea#yall better tag me in it if you do this

If no one could tell yes I did get COTL this week. It’s thanks to amazing fan art and my inability to be Normal about pairings where one side can’t flirt without it sounding like a threat.
Im also fully aware, and was before I bought it, that it’s just fandom thirst making this pairing a thing because I’ve spoken to Narinder maybe 6 times and killed two bishops. I will happily eat these olives from a can behind the restaurant.
#also I knew the twins had a mom but I didn’t know?? her side of it???#cotl#cult of the lamb#I’m having a great time#you gave me good art of a crack ship I’m here for it#made the mistake of choosing kindness for my first run of a game I will make mistakes in#should have gone full murderous rager but#oh well eat your grass

I really need to stop thinking about gladiator Shamura and think up something that a more toxic lamb would use to keep Narinder in line, but I also can’t because the concept of it is really too sexy for me omg
Considering the fight pit is a thing I’m shocked I’m the first person in the fandom to really consider it? But like everything about it is appealing to me? And besides we focused more on how its punishing for Kallamar, and while not quite as traumatizing it’d still require the lamb to break Shamura in
It’s like turning a wolf into the attack dog for a owner, the same owner that big bad wolf once swore they’d tear their throat out with their teeth and leave only a corpse in its wake, all exposed rib and rotten flesh
They’d be hard to tame, they literally emerge from a genocide and a traumatic head injury, just now losing their godhood and having to be put into the pillory, ‘after they already lost’ because they’re ‘still fighting you’
I’d love to write fancy prose about it all but I do wanna get to the meat and bones of it- the only two things that could really break them, -though I said this last time- is their pride and Narinder, pride would be easy, for the first few years, they’d probably be heavily punished for being around anything that could be weaponized- not until they put their talents to the test, to amuse the lamb- and having lost so much knowledge, they’re left with little to do, silent and still as a ghost all of the followers look at their scarred skin (like they didn’t earn them) and their bandaged skull (like they didn’t deserve that) with either disgust, fear, and pity,
Isolation is a form of torture after all, and perhaps self flagellation, because the lamb wouldn’t have to do much for it- keeping Narinder away from Shamura, dangling the possibility of even getting to see him above their head ,would be enough they’d cave in on themselves
They once reveled in war, basking in the death slaughter would bring, every death was a gift, a love letter written in mortal blood to their lover, now war is a show
By the time the lamb decides to make a show of them, using perhaps a spy, or a unruly follower they’d be itching for it, aching for war, longing for death, killing them would come as easily as breathing, and then it happens again, and again, the new dogfighting champion!
If the fact that Shamura never really getting to see Him unless it’s at the pit, and they’re preforming well, then perhaps corporal punishment might, if they ever lose control of their blood lust (I really shouldve added this idea to my last ask because it’s such a good one?) I feel like the goat would be in charge of keeping Shamura in tact and doling out punishments, The lamb and the goat being the only two people they never win against
(Just a personal headcanon but I feel like the lamb likes the goat to handle it because they don’t want to give Shamura the satisfaction of dignifying them with a fight, if it’s ever necessary to put Shamura back in their place they make the power imbalance clear, the goat would have no problem beating their ass while everyone watches however)
Shamuras violence, was never meant for the lamb or their followers to jeer at, they were never meant to only ever be the third deadliest person in the room, their violence never meant to be a punishment for the lambs followers whenever they refuse to obey the lamb -and all of their bloodshed was supposed to belong to him-
That violence becomes a promise, after the dogfight, once it’s all said and done, that they’ll tear through the lambs throat the moment their muzzle come off, and the smile The lamb gives once their dog is done is the lamb reminding themselves to never unmuzzle them, to choke Shamura with their own leash
(Yeah alright now I’m done, why’d this prompt get hotter the second time? The corporal punishment of the goat (imagine them and Shamura FIGHTING omg I don’t even have to say anything else) the mental punishment from the lamb, (the manipulation, how they twist and contort shamuras body with tentacles to avoid having to touch them, maybe even loyalty necklaces) yeah this is too good sorry! I just had to do it ONE more time, I’m actually finished now)
anon you can't drop three magnificent novels in my ask and then not start writing for ao3, get on it.
fave bits = - They’d be hard to tame, they literally emerge from a genocide and a traumatic head injury, just now losing their godhood and having to be put into the pillory, ‘after they already lost’ because they’re ‘still fighting you’ - Shamuras violence, was never meant for the lamb or their followers to jeer at, they were never meant to only ever be the third deadliest person in the room, their violence never meant to be a punishment for the lambs followers whenever they refuse to obey the lamb -and all of their bloodshed was supposed to belong to him-
<3
I also love that you reddened "him" because I bet that shamura only every wrote Narinder's name in their own blood
#cult of the lamb#cotl#proship#shipcest#<3#narisham#bishipping#long post#anon may you choose a sign off please because my brain is getting confused lol ^^;#🗣️

What Love Says… Meaning
Knowing who you are is a journey, it is love, trust, truth, authenticity all explored with an open heart. You are a divine gift of love and more, just as you are.
Imagine the ways in which you grow as you inner-stand, know and love yourself. With an open heart and mind you begin choosing new ways to nourish as you inner-stand and fill your needs.

Can you, as you embrace all of you bring awareness and focus on what your heart truly prefers? What ideas and possibilities will you explore in this place of love and inner-standing?
As you choose to create thoughts, words and actions which support you, you move toward what you prefer. You choose the meaning you want and prefer in your life. You are what gives your life meaning.
Oodles of love on your journey to a meaningful life while inner-standing who you truly are.
